Review on Braun Series 5 51S Replacement Pack - Foil and Cutter Kit (Formerly 8000 360 Complete or Activator) by Ashley Belehar

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I have a 5 series shaver but it doesn't fit my model 5775 type 5724

Braun is completely ridiculous. I am sure that this foil fits the right razor. The problem is figuring out what works with your razor. I got this for my 5775 type 5724 and it didn't fit. So I contacted Brown to ask for help. They said they have 3 DIFFERENT 5775 models. So I needed a "type" which is 5724 for me. This method is completely stupid. Just name 3 different types of 5775 models: 5775, 5776 and 5777. Then you will know which foil is the right one for your shaver. That's how I finally found the 31's worked with my razor 5775 type 5724. The 31B foil is the same as I've heard, just black. So will I buy another Braun if this one dies? no I bought Braun because I know they are durable and you can get replacement parts. In my conversation with Braun, they said they no longer make slides to replace the 31S or 31B. So there's a theory that you have to spend a little more on Braun to get a razor that lasts longer.

Pros
  • delivery was very quick
Cons
  • useless features
